    Whole house RO

    I just tapped into the RO side of my rodi setup and put a 15g tank with a float valve on it. It has a directional ball valve on it. One direction makes tank water and the other direction makes drinking water. It's in the laundry room vs the garage but I just use it to fill up a dispenser in...

    Maroon Clownfish (large) lays on side but eats fine!

    Have you thought about getting a anemone for her? Nems might be a little more picky re water quality though, and definitely lighting. Not sure if you're running a fish only tank or a reef. I guess I should ask that first.

    Three Stripe Damselfish died

    My guess would be old age. You never how old they are already when you get them. 8 years is a long time for any fish. Some fish have a shorter life expectancy than others as well.

    Issues with Corals Slowly Dying

    agree with BigRick. It's about eliminating variables. If lights are new, rule that out. ICP test says water quality is good, nix that. Bacterial seems to be the next logical culprit to address (which you are it sounds like)

    Issues with Corals Slowly Dying

    How old are your T5's? I run T5s exclusively and have had similar issues before, only to realize my bulbs were 2 years old. I replaced the bulbs and growth returned. Not saying this is your case, but one could argue that if you had good growth before and don't now, it could be because your...

    Issues with Corals Slowly Dying

    Could be a lighting issue. What kind of lights are you running?

    Little Boat that Could build!!

    Those little john boats are a lot of fun. Very easy to swamp though if another boat makes a big wave and it hits you just right, so make sure everybody keeps their life jackets on if you're on open water. We used to use one for duck hunting and there were a few times when we were weighted down...

    How much for a new roof?

    Can you do a satellite quote if I give you the address? I'm not ready to part with the cash yet and the roof is still decent, albeit it was installed in 08 and is only a 15 yr 3 tab. But I'd be interested in knowing what you would charge and what it's gonna cost me when I'm ready. I always...

    How much for a new roof?

    I've found it's almost just as cheap to pay out of pocket. For instance, one of my rent houses needs a new roof. The insurance values the home at $300k (which is a joke) but let's roll with that bc I can't argue it. A moderately priced policy has a 3% deductible. That's $9, 000 for you...

    Nem dying need help!!

    My experience with Condylactis is this: A healthy one is a brown muddy color. The pretty white ones you see in the store have been bleached where their zooxanthella has died off and left them a pretty white color. If you are able to get it healthy, it will turn brown on you. That's the...

    FJW AQUARIUM HOURS

    I was there too. He'll be back. The big problem for him is .........to rebuild his store, ALL of the tanks will have to come out so they can redo sheetrock, paint, wiring, etc. Where do you move and store that many tanks? Fortunately the shop next door to him moved out last weekend and the...
